Dismantling a wind farm: a first

14 June 2010 - New contracts - France

On 28 April, the Cegelec Energy unit of Cegelec Global Systems & Services (Energy business line) took down the last of the ten turbines at the Sallèles-Limousis site, near Carcassonne (south of France). This operation was one of the key stages in the first dismantling of a wind farm in France. It will be followed by the removal of all the technical equipment, the levelling off of the foundations and the replanting of the site.
